  • NFL World Championship Game, the Super Bowl Has Grown to Become One of the Largest Sports Spectacles in the United States
    / The Golden Anniversary ofthe Super Bowl: A Legacy 50 Years in the Making An Honors Thesis (HONR 499) by Chelsea Police Thesis Advisor Mr. Neil Behrman Signed Ball State University Muncie, Indiana May 2016 Expected Date of Graduation May 2016 §pCoJI U ncler.9 rod /he. 51;;:, J_:D ;l.o/80J · Z'7 The Golden Anniversary ofthe Super Bowl: A Legacy 50 Years in the Making ~0/G , PG.5 Abstract Originally known as the AFL-NFL World Championship Game, the Super Bowl has grown to become one of the largest sports spectacles in the United States. Cities across the cotintry compete for the right to host this prestigious event. The reputation of such an occasion has caused an increase in demand and price for tickets, making attendance nearly impossible for the average fan. As a result, the National Football League has implemented free events for local residents and out-of-town visitors. This, along with broadcasting the game, creates an inclusive environment for all fans, leaving a lasting legacy in the world of professional sports. This paper explores the growth of the Super Bowl from a novelty game to one of the country' s most popular professional sporting events. Acknowledgements First, and foremost, I would like to thank my parents for their unending support. Thank you for allowing me to try new things and learn from my mistakes. Most importantly, thank you for believing that I have the ability to achieve anything I desire. Second, I would like to thank my brother for being an incredible role model.

  • Super Bowl Xlv on Fox Is Most-Watched Program in Tv History
    SUPER BOWL XLV ON FOX IS MOST-WATCHED PROGRAM IN TV HISTORY Game Obliterates Prior Record; Sets Super Bowl Mark for Fourth Straight Year Prime Time Audience Exceeds 100 Million for First Time Irving, TX – History was made last night on FOX when Super Bowl XLV became the most- watched U.S. television program ever, and FOX became the first network ever to exceed 100 million viewers (100.9 million) for a night in prime time, according to fast-national ratings released today by Nielsen Media Research. The game, the outcome of which was in doubt until the final seconds, saw the Green Bay Packers defeat the Pittsburgh Steelers 31-25 to capture the franchise’s fourth Super Bowl Championship. FOX Sports’ broadcast of Super Bowl XLV averaged 111 million viewers and is the most- watched television program in U.S. history, obliterating the prior record of 106.5 set last year during Super Bowl XLIV by 4.5 million viewers and the 106.0 million for the series finale of M*A*S*H, which held the viewership record from 1983 to 2010. This is the fourth consecutive Super Bowl to set a viewership record, and attracted 13.5 million more viewers than FOX’s last Super Bowl broadcast in 2008 (97.5 million) for the New York Giants upset of the undefeated New England Patriots. No other major sporting event has ever hit a record high in four consecutive years. This also marks the sixth straight year that Super Bowl viewership has increased, and over that span average Super Bowl viewership has increased from 86.1 million in 2005 to 111.0 million, a gain of nearly 25 million viewers.

  • Football History Highlights
    Football History Highlights Category: Group Activity Series: The NFL at a Glance (Amazing NFL Stories: 12 Highlights from NFL History) Supplies Multiple copies of Amazing NFL Stories: 12 Highlights from NFL History, access to Football history timeline: http://www.profootballhof.com/football-history/history-of-football/ Prep Ask students to read Amazing NFL Stories: 12 Highlights from NFL History or read it together as a class. Skim through the Football history timeline, using the attached Timeline Summary to note the most important events. Directions Ask the students to summarize a few of the chapters of Amazing NFL Stories. Help them notice the kinds of stories the chapters tell (a first-time accomplishment, a change in how the game was played, a rival league, or an all-time record). Split the students into six groups. Assign each group a date range: • 1869 to 1919 • 1960 to 1979 • 1920 to 1939 • 1980 to 1999 • 1940 to 1959 • 2000 to present (Note: On the Football History timeline, all events 1869 to 1939 are in the same category. Since that category is the longest, this activity splits it in half.) Have each group read all the events in their date range on the Football History timeline, looking for the kinds of key events that are described in Amazing NFL Stories. Each group should choose 8 years from their date range that they feel included the most important events. They should write down each year, along with a summary (two or three sentences) of the events that make it important. Evaluation Did the students correctly identify the most important events in their assigned date range? Give them 1 point for identifying each event and 2 points for summarizing it objectively.

  • Bobby Mitchell
    PRO FOOTBALL HALL OF FAME TEACHER ACTIVITY GUIDE 2019-2020 EDITIOn WASHInGTOn REDSKInS Team History With three Super Bowl championships, the Washington Redskins are one of the NFL’s most dominant teams of the past quarter century. But the organization’s glorious past dates back almost 60 years and includes five world championships overall and some of the most innovative people and ideas the game has ever known. From George Preston Marshall to Jack Kent Cooke, from Vince Lombardi to Joe Gibbs, from Sammy Baugh to John Riggins, plus the NFL’s first fight song, marching band and radio network, the Redskins can be proud of an impressive professional football legacy. George Preston Marshall was awarded the inactive Boston franchise in July 1932. He originally named the team “Braves” because it used Braves Field, home of the National League baseball team. When the team moved to Fenway Park in July 1933, the name was changed to Redskins. A bizarre situation occurred in 1936, when the Redskins won the NFL Eastern division championship but Marshall, unhappy with the fan support in Boston,moved the championship game against Green Bay to the Polo Grounds in New York. Their home field advantage taken away by their owner, the Redskins lost. Not surprisingly, the Redskins moved to Washington, D.C., for the 1937 season. Games were played in Griffith Stadium with the opener on September 16, 1937, being played under flood lights. That year,Marshall created an official marching band and fight song, both firsts in the National Football League. That season also saw the debut of “Slinging Sammy” Baugh, a quarterback from Texas Christian who literally changed the offensive posture of pro football with his forward passing in his 16-season career.

  • 2017 Joe Gibbs
    JOE GIBBS: Team Owner Nearly a quarter century after winning his third Super Bowl as head coach of the NFL’s Washington Redskins, Joe Gibbs still hasn’t stopped adding to his impressive list of championships. Despite retiring as an NFL coach in 2008 after his second stint with the Redskins, the owner of Joe Gibbs Racing (JGR) now has more Monster Energy NASCAR Cup Series Championships than Super Bowl wins as driver Kyle Busch helped Gibbs score his fourth title as an owner in NASCAR’s top series in 2015. As JGR enters its 26th season in 2017, Gibbs has shown no signs of slowing down as his team continues to shine as one of the sport’s premier organizations. Gibbs, who hails from Mocksville, North Carolina, oversees an organization that has produced four NASCAR Cup Series titles – Bobby Labonte in 2000, Tony Stewart in 2002 and 2005, and Kyle Busch in 2015. It also won NASCAR Xfinity Series owner titles in 2008, 2009, 2010, and 2013, the Xfinity Series driver titles for Busch in 2009 and Daniel Suarez in 2016, and 267 NASCAR Cup Series and Xfinity Series victories. Gibbs’ four Cup Series championships, five Xfinity Series titles, plus his three Super Bowl victories as coach of the Redskins in 1983, 1988 and 1992 mean he has won an incredible 12 championships in two of the most popular sports in the United States. “The thing that has always amazed me about championship runs in pro sports, at least in the four I’ve been involved with at JGR and the three I had in the NFL with the Redskins, is how difficult they are to win and how different they are, and that one year doesn’t buy you the next,” Gibbs said.
